The other day, while shuffling things around in my closet, purging and whatnot, I came upon my short stack of too-warm-for-summer pants, that I pile behind the "wear now" stack - it looks tidier on the shelf this way, and I don't have to balance, like, 12 pairs of pants in a wobbly tower all the … [Read more...]
The Girls.
Our little neck of the 'hood is chock-full-o-kids. There are often six or seven of them milling about at one time, but at weekends, their numbers easily swell to fifteen or so. Their ages range from twelve down to two... it's pretty awesome, really, how they all play together, and how the older ones … [Read more...]
All About Boobs!
Do you watch Parenthood? The show kills me seriously. Last year it was almost too painful to watch as one couple was struggling with adoption and two of my best friends were as well. The acting is that good that sometimes it was too draining. Last night I caught up on last week's episode. Here … [Read more...]
Six days left!
This was not a good couple of weeks. First, let's get to the good news. The UrbanMoms Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation CIBC Run for the Cure team as more than 21members and has raised over $3100, $1100 more than our initial goal. This is exciting stuff and with 6 days to go, we are hoping to add … [Read more...]
Nailing It.
The explosion of nail trends has taken over from the runways to the office. I've seen some that I love but I personally prefer to stick with designs that are more subtle with sexier feel and not something my teenage niece would be doing. Flowers and stars are cute on her but since a Shellac mani … [Read more...]
the harmony order brings
(you did not seriously think I was going to let you into my naughty underwear drawer did you?) I have never been a neat freak- I like this and don't like this about myself. Sometimes when I cook I use every counter top and leave every cupboard open but I like some order, get a rash if the beds … [Read more...]
White Cashmere’s Luxurious 2012 Runway Show
You've seen the ads on TV or on the pages of fashion magazines. You know, the model strutting down the runway with the White Cashmere Bathroom Tissue (BT) rolling off her dress, remember? It's hard to believe that the concept of BT couture started nine years ago challenging emerging Canadian fashion … [Read more...]
(On The Way Out) From My Closet – September 20th, 2012
I can e'splain... I bought skirt close to Christmas-party season several years back - it's a high-waisted dark grey satin with a bit of black tulle at the hem, with a black grosgrain ribbon bow replete with black cherries affixed on the hip. Felt like something I could wear that said "holiday" … [Read more...]
Music makes it better
If you would have told me a month ago that I would be able to run 20 minutes, or 3.5km without buckling over and crying like an baby without its bottle, I would put down my bag of corn chips, take a sip of my beer and laugh you out of the room. Yet, two days ago, at 6:43am, I slid on my 10 year-old … [Read more...]
The one MUST HAVE in your fall wardrobe…
As the weather turns cooler do you start wearing boots with everything? I sure do! I live in boots! They are stylish, and effortless. They go with dresses and skinny jeans. But hey, us ladies need a little covering on our legs and comfort on our feet, right?So, get this...on a cold Chicago day … [Read more...]
